very difficult, Famix was not conceived for that usage at the start but rather to identify dependencies between "higher level entities" (packages, classes, methods)
You could try to check the source anchors (same line between method invocation and variable access) but that would ot be 100% correct.
Long time ago, I started a java to FAST parser https://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/verveinej/verveine.extractor.FASTJava (FAST being a specialization of FAMIX to ASTs) but I don't remember what its status is ...

Through a jdt2famix parsed model of an application I'm trying to follow the usage of a (FAMIX)Parameter. How can this be done?
From a method parameter I can access its enclosing method and from there on find invocations within that method for example. The problem is that there does not seem to be a direct way to retrieve the fact that a parameter is part of a method invocation (both direct or as part of an expression). It seems I have to parse a piece of the source code (the invocation signature to be precise). This does not feel okay. Can anyone give some pointers on how to find parameter usage without resorting to parsing the source code (if such a solution exists)?
(Googling didn't help so far, or I'm not using the right search parameters ;-)
Example Java source code, for which I want to follow the 'x' parameter:
void startPoint(String x, int y) {
// Here is first 'simple' parameter usage this.doSomething(x, y);
// Here parameter is part of an expression this.that.doAnother("[" + x + "]");
// Parameter is part of expression again (twice) this.doLast(x.substring(0, y) + x.substring(y + 8)); }
Cheers, Erik
